We individually handroll beads from recycling junk mail, magazine pages, old cards and cereal boxes. The colour of our jewellery is varied and determined by the actual paper we decide to use. There is no paint involved. The beads are sealed with clear varnish to make them shower resistant and gives them a shiny finish.

Recycle old maps into bracelets

Just want to share my newidea with you.

Take a few pages out of a old used map.

Roll them into beads as I did with the cerealbox beads in my previous blog.

Use a bit of your imagination, and there you have it.Never get lost with your very own map bracelet.

Hi! I Really love this idea, the bracelet is so cute! I'd like to feature a link to it on my website - www.voiladejavu.co.uk, it's ablog site I run showcasing creativity and style in vintage and eco fashion, it would go under the projects section.I'd ask to borrow one of your photo's to show the finished project, write a little introduction and link to your blog and thetutorial. If that's okay with you please let me know as soon as you can.=]Lou xx
